He ate 100% raw vegan for a couple years and lived off grid with no electricity for a year. He is the CEO of Cleanse America, which has led 10,000 people through a cleansing process over the course of 2 years.     He created and ran a smoothie bar called Barefoot Market for 6 years. He built his own "tiny house" with no experience going into the process, and wrote a book about the journey called "Kinda Tiny Home, An Unorthodox Approach to Building & Owning Your Own Home".  He is currently a designer and builder with the Hayhurst Brothers. His business has been on the DIY network show "Texas Flip and Move" the past two years, and he is now preparing to film a new show for HGTV.         Paul has taken psychedelics around 1,000 times over the course of a decade, including DMT, Salvia, 2CB, 2CI, LSD but 99% of what he engaged with was mushrooms.
